Sara Mouw, a University of Iowa MBA student focusing on marketing, has joined HRB (Henry Russell Bruce) as a public relations intern.
Mouw, a 2010 graduate of Central College with a BA in Business Management, spent a year as an Assistant Sports Information Director at Pacific University in Forest Grove, Ore. before returning to her home state to further her education. She brings the experience of interacting with the media, writing news releases and creating a buzz on social media to her role at HRB.
“Not only was her degree a good match for HRB, but her experience in a highly competitive sports marketing arena gives her an edge in understanding the expectations of coworkers and clients,” said Shelby Kraus, V.P of Public Relations/Account Supervisor. “Her maturity will also give her the ability to get up-to-speed quickly and have a very diverse and effective internship.”
When not studying marketing theories or writing news releases, the former Central College volleyball player is teaching the game she loves. Upon returning to Iowa, Mouw joined the coaching staff of the Iowa Rockets Volleyball Club and is currently coaching a 17 and under team that recently qualified for the USA Volleyball Junior Nationals.
